Regulus cursed under his breath, and reabsorbed the tendril of water into his reservoir. Thrusting his hand forward, he pressurized and released a beach-ball sized sphere of water from his reservoir, sending it streaming like a cannon shot towards the assembled zombies.

Regulus then quickly took a swig from the water skin at his belt. He might not get a chance later.

Pastoval channels his power and utters a mighty roar to cast it. A short wall of hardened energy, about knee height on a human, appears in front of him. The wall speeds toward the zombies, expanding as it does so to catch the entire hoard.

Larius meanwhile, sensing his advantage, commanded for the skeleton under his command to hide behind the created wall of energy, approaching the Lich while pretending to be one of its servants. Should it manage to get close enough they might be able to land a hit against the magic-user.

The Zombies were knocked over and burned by the wall as the cannon had knocked some of the Zombies to parts

The Lich had avoided the attack to him as a ball of dark energy came around the tip of his staff. The high-ranking Zombie had fired it at Pastoval. He didn't seem to pay much attention to the skeleton, just assuming it was one of his servants.

Pastoval's focus on his spell meant that he just barely noticed the lich's attack in time. Luckily his feline reflexes allowed him to dodge it, though it did manage to graze his tail.

"Smoking's bad for your health!"

Richard creates a larger ball of fire, sending it flying towards the lich.

The Lich was nimble enough to avoid the attack as his soulless eyes were now on Richard. He pointed his staff as multiple balls fired from his staff. They weren't as big or as powerful as the one large ball he shot before, but they seemed to be much faster.

Regulus strained as he spread all the water remaining in his reservoir in a large shield in front of himself.

"Get behind me," he shouted to his companions.

Pastoval leaps behind Regulus. Three small balls of magic fire form in a triangle in front of his head as he prepares a spell.

Richard quickly ran behind the shield, while also creating a some more spheres of iron.

"If I can just get a clean shot at that lich..."

The shield withheld the Lich's attack as the undead wizard started to chant in some kind of language. While he was chanting, he seemed to not be moving anywhere, so he must have been really concentrating for something.

"Hmm..."

He quickly stepped out from behind the shield.

"Look out, hot iron, coming through!"

He sends the spheres of iron rocketing ahead towards the lich's head.

The Lich's chant was interrupted by the iron ball knocking his head clean off his shoulders, killing him...for the second time.

With the chaos ending, it was safe to look around the room. The room seemed to be deserted, except for the skeletons lying around on the floor. All the skeletons seemed to have those same rings on their fingers. Even the Zombies and the Lich seemed to have them. And there were odd, old markings that were engraved on the walls, floor, and ceiling with pictures of a bat's face drawn on it.

Pastoval allows his spell to dissipate. He stretches his limbs a bit, "Nice, Richard. Wasn't exactly keen on seein' what he had in store."

"More rings," Regulus said bluntly. "So it appears the cult was attempting eternal life. We appear to have cut that short." He said no more, concentrating instead on refilling his reservoir with water.

"Aye. Probably means we shouldn't take the rings as well. Not that I could use one anyway," Pastoval moves to investigate the lich's body.

Upon inspection, it would appear that the Lich's body was marked in the same carvings as were marked on the wall, in a language that seemed unidentifiable. His rotting his hand also had the same ring, but he had one on each of his five fingers.

The rest of the room seemed eerily empty. The only thing left inside was a table with a book on it, both untouched and covered in dust and mold.

"Ooh, a book!"

Richard made his way over to it.

"Think we should read it? I've read about some books that just aren't meant to be read though..."

Pastoval looks up from the lich, "You can risk it if you want. If it's anything like these markings, it won't be readable at all."

Seeing that the Lich had already been defeated, Larius approached the caster's corpse, attempting to pry its staff from its cold, dead hands. Maybe it would be more powerful than his own?

The book seemed to have a few pages missing, but it was indeed read-able in a common language. Inside, the book spoke about how the cult worshiped the God, Grimcrypt, and how they wanted to serve him. The book would go on, listing members that, by now, would have been dead as they seemed to come from all kinds: poor nobodies to families of royalty. It started to talk about how the alter to this ritual was up the stairs, but the rest of the pages were missing.

The Lich's dead, rotten hand snapped off from the arm when Larius took it. The staff seemed to pulsate with a dark power as the fingers fell off of it. The staff, upon closer inspection, had the same markings that were upon the rings.

Meanwhile, outside the room, noises could be heard. It sounded like foot steps.

Pastoval cocks his head in the direction of the footsteps. His eyes begin to pulsate with magic, "I hate to interrupt you boys, but we have company."

"Perhaps the other side of the door might be a more defendable position, should whomever that is prove hostile," Regulus said, moving to the other side of the doorway.

Banging on the door and soon bursting it down was another Zombie hoard. This one seemed bigger, having 20 of them in the group.

Pastoval chuckles wryly, "I think I'm noticing a theme." He stands his ground and quickly gathers his magic with a thought. He roars and a cloud of magical fire bursts from his mouth.

Sleep? Sleep?! Sleep is for the weak!
